Misc Adler RF-224 "gen 2"

Just saw these at the big show. I guess the RF-224 with the extended mag release that have been around are like a MK1.5, because the gen2 has some other quite notable differences. The extended mag release is there, but they also plugged the top screw hole for the foreend and switched to what appears to be a takedown twist knob on the side. Really weird! Also, no more crazy glued buffer tube, as it has a 1913 adapter built on the back, and it comes with a fixed, more minimalist stock. I'd be interested to know if they made any internal changes. I find the RF-224 ejector placement makes bolt removal and reinstall somehow even more annoying than a stock 10/22.

Are they improving the 10/22 magazine compatibility? I heard some bad things about it, like how it wasn't to-spec.

Yeah, would be a good thing to do. BX mags are bad enough, I have trouble with certain 597-adapted mags as well! Only the factory Adler mags have been a true fit for me.
